Over the years here I have made many derogatory remarks regarding the quality of American beer. These remarks have mostly stemmed from my experience with such beverages as Miller Genuine Draft, Bud Light, (heavens forbid) Rainier Beer, and anything from Schlitz or Anheiser Bush.



This past week, though, I was able to sample (a LOT) some FRICKIN AMAZING beers produced in US of A. These were varied in their taste to an amazing degree. Even their packaging was creative and inspiring. And there were more varieties than I could count on all of my 20 digits. (after drinking a bit, all my 40 digits )

True, all these beers were made in Portland, Oregon. AND it WAS the beginning of their month-long Craft Beer Festival. And pretty much every beer manufacturer there is gonna vote Democrat. AND I was REALLY THIRSTY at the time.

But

They were, in all legal manor and way of construction, American beers.

So

I say to you Yankees and Brit-Splitters: I am sorry. I was wrong. About your BEER, anyway...

My deepest saddness was realizing that I'm about 8 hours away from this great magical place of Wonderful Yankee Suds. Maybe, once I'm rich and powerful, I'll build a mono-rail transit system that will take me directly to John's Market, just outside Portland, where I'll have quick access to over 1000 different FINE and EXCELLENT beers.

[props to Matt n' Beck for showing me the light! ]

Yeah that's all well and good Reindude but ya still have to apologised for all them horrible things you said about vegemite, so for me this is just the start of the " I'm sorry from Reinman Day"...

Vegemite raised this nation to its greatness and still supports it troops to this day....

and those silly Yanks bloody banned the nectar of the gods

Ah my dear Blue. You are STILL SO MAD AT ME because I chose to drive 8.5 hours onto American soil INSTEAD of taking the 17 hour JET FLIGHT to your almost inaccessable land of bad sandwich spreads and jumping animals.

*sigh*

Perhaps someday you'll (drink enough of that watered down monkey's pee you down-under-dudes call beer and) forgive me. Then it will be YOUR turn to say "I'm sorry".

[place bubbling happy hearts and cherubs icon here]

Damn you rein I still remember that essay you made right on vegemite...you bastard...and Im still sore at ya for that...but come on admit it ya love our jumpin marsupials, every one loves our jumping marsupials

Any beer is good beer(and I've drank some pissy efforts that shouldn't even be called beer).

Nectar of the gods?

Pissy efforts, but they're still 'good'? Cause they're beer?
I hope you haven't been applying this same formula on woman.

When you gonna apologise for spelling apology with two Ps?

Okay. I'm sory I spelt appology with too peez.

That better? You feelin' better now? huh?

You know..I see the the words , but you don't look all that appologetic.

I also appologise for nitpicking the spelling of appology!
